Question 12

2025 Bar · Political Law · 1 sub-question

12. A was a rider for one of the largest online shopping platforms in the Philippines. She collected several parcels from XYZ Retail Store for delivery to the customers. She immediately noticed though the unique smell emanating from the parcels but chose to ignore the same. While she was driving, a stray dog suddenly crossed the road, prompting her to hit the brakes hard. As a result, one of the parcels fell and burst, revealing several grams of dried cannabis (marijuana). A reported the incident to the nearby police station. Consequently, the owner of XYZ Retail Store, B, was charged with illegal sale of dangerous drugs. In his defense, B invoked his right against unreasonable search and seizure which A allegedly violated when the latter mishandled the parcel. Is B correct? Reason(s).
